Decided on not running today mainly because of my knee..

Sitting now at Oslo airport I thought I summarize the past days a bit..

So I started with high motivation and more important high expectations in myself and my orienteering which I quickly needed to adapt to my current skill level. Sometimes a bit harder to directly accept but nothing unusual. But then, although I still don´t know or remember any specific fall, my knee started to make problems and got a bit worse starting Monday evening some time after my run. So even though I got around on Tuesday to change my mindset I couldn´t train anymore and put things into action leaving me in a weird state somewhere in between. Got a bit "depressed" by not being able to train but wanting to improve what I did wrong before.
As the weekends two races were going to be selection races for WorldCup in Finland I for sure wanted to run them. In the end a bad decision for the knee and also a disaster as you can read below at the session itself..

Now I am heading onwards to Finland as my plans are to train up there in the forest of my clubs area. It will very likely start with the wiser decision which will be resting and getting the knee fully working again...
Either way, I heart it´s quite nice up there, so I will focus my mind on that!
